"A Zhang Jianxiong can cover the sky with one hand in Puzhou and blind the court to hear and hear?"

Liu Chengyou's questioning voice echoed in the Chongzheng Palace.

Facing the wrath of the Son of Heaven, Zhao Li and Wang Jingchong crouched on the cold floor, their bodies tense and trembling. Liu Chengyou rarely gets angry like this, and courtiers rarely see such gaffes and questions, but whenever this happens, it proves that someone is going to be unlucky.

Anyway, Wang Jingchong doesn't want the unlucky person to be himself. Noticing Zhao Li, who was beside him, bowing to the ground, he looked at Liu Chengyou, who was high above, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, about Zhang Jianxiong's matter, the minister has another report!" ”

"Say!"

Wang Jingchong looked at Zhao Li again, looked at his expression, and hesitated. Seeing this, Liu Chengyou raised his eyebrows and said, "In the Chongzheng Palace, there is no one who cannot speak out!" ”

Wang Jingchong said at this time: "According to the investigation of the ministers, Zhang Jianxiong has gathered a lot of money in Puzhou, and he has gained a lot. As for the imperial history of Puzhou's inspection, as well as the imperial history of Henan Province, they were all bribed by him with heavy profits......"

"Okay!" Hearing his report, Liu Chengyou was already angry, but his tone couldn't help but sneer, and he looked at Zhao Li: "It's only been a few years!" Yu Shitai, I really didn't disappoint! ”

Listening to Wang Jingchong's complaint, Zhao Li's face turned pale, and when he heard the sarcasm of the Son of Heaven, he was even more frightened, and kowtowed again and again to ask for guilt: "The ministers are guilty!" If you have disappointed Your Majesty's expectations, please punish Your Majesty! ”

In fact, after going to Puzhou in person, Zhao Li had already noticed that something was wrong, and he knew that there might be something wrong inside the Yushitai. Originally, I wanted to suppress this matter, investigate slowly, and control the impact on the Imperial History Observatory to a minimum. However, I really didn't expect that the Son of Heaven reacted so quickly and his eyes were so keen, and he immediately thought of this problem.

"Your Majesty, please let me be!" Although he was flustered, Zhao Li still tried his best to keep himself calm, and bowed: "Yushitai may have corrupt officials, but after all, it is a minority, just remove the moths." The ministers are Taiwanese officials, and their subordinates are misguided, or there is a fault of the emperor's poor supervision, please punish Your Majesty! ”

In the past three years, with the support of Liu Chengyou, the supervision system of the imperial court has continued to grow, at least the staffing inside and outside Beijing is gradually in place, and the authority of the imperial history platform is constantly being re-established by supervising the military and politics on weekdays.

As one of the high-ranking officials of the Imperial Historical Tower, Zhao Li was unwilling, so he lost his sacred heart because of this incident. In particular, the rise of Wu Desi has greatly encroached on part of the authority of the Imperial Historical Observatory.

"And besides, this matter is also the words of Wu Desi, Deputy Envoy Wang's family, and the details have yet to be verified! For the Puzhou matter, there are still omissions in the strictness of the Wude Division...... "Zhao Li was also anxious, Wang Jingchong burned the fire to his imperial history platform, and he couldn't take care of it much, but he came to do it.

When his words fell, Wang Jingchong suddenly glared angrily. Seeing that these two people had a tendency to bite each other, Liu Chengyou snorted coldly.

After the two of them were honest, Liu Chengyou moved his gaze to Wang Jingchong: "What is the situation with Wu Desi, do you not know what is going on?" ”

"This ......" Facing the cold question of the Son of Heaven, Wang Jingchong opened his mouth and looked at Zhao Li again, still looking scruples.

Seeing this, Liu Chengyou thought about it a little, after all, Wu Desi has a lot of things that can't be put on the table.

So, he turned his head to Zhao Li and ordered: "Zhao Qing, get up first, don't break your head." You go back to the Imperial History Terrace first and tell Bian Guiyan about this, and I don't know if he, the Imperial History Doctor, knows about it! The lord of the imperial history is supervised by the state, and he has deep hopes for me, his heart is not right, and his behavior is not beneficial, how can he observe people. Go back, go back to the same side, and check yourself. ”

Hearing Liu Chengyou say this, Zhao Li breathed a sigh of relief and bowed gratefully: "Obey!" Retire! ”

Zhao Li cautiously withdrew from the political hall, Liu Chengyou flicked the sleeves of his robe, looked at Wang Jingchong, and said in a flat tone: "There is no one else in the hall, get up and talk!" ”

Wang Jingchong didn't get up, he still knelt, took a deep breath, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the minister wanted to play secretly, and after the minister's investigation, there was indeed someone inside Wude who did protect Zhang Jianxiong's cover-up. ”

"Who?" Liu Chengyou's eyes narrowed.

"Gyeonggi is known, Hou praise!" Wang Jingchong said.

"Houzan?" Liu Chengyou frowned, his eyes were glowing with coldness, staring at Wang Jingchong, and the suspicion in his tone became even stronger: "That Zhang Jianxiong, how can he buy the people of Wu Desi?" ”

Buried his head, Wang Jingchong's spirit was tense at this time, but there was a hint of cunning in those eyes.

Faced with the question of the Son of Heaven, he did not dare to slack off, and explained: "The capital of Gyeonggi is known to praise Houzan, and it is the envoy of Xuanhui, the uncle of the country, Li Ye, and the commander of Li, and Zhang Jianxiong is good friends with the uncle, so the two have contacts. This time, the reason why Uncle Guo's news is so handy is that Hou Zan revealed his ......"

"What is Li Shaoyou doing? Well? This Hou praised so boldly, Wu Desi has news, but he dares not to report it in time? Liu Chengyou reprimanded a few words coldly.

Wang Jingchong looked frightened and did not dare to say it again.

"Go, pass on the martial arts envoy!" Liu Chengyou commanded Zhang Dejun.

Immediately looked at the respectful Wang Jingchong, Liu Chengyou sighed indifferently: "You Wang Jingchong, you are really a minister, I am not mistaken." In such a short period of time, the matter has been investigated clearly! ”

"Your Majesty has a life, and the minister does not dare to slack off, so he can only do his best to repay His Majesty's kindness!" Wang Jing worshipped it.

"My legs are numb on my knees! Get up! Seeing that he was still kneeling, Liu Chengyou said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty" This time, Wang Jingchong slowly got up, and dedicated the confession and testimony he obtained from the investigation to Liu Chengyou.

It took some time, and after reading, Liu Chengyou gently fell on the imperial case, which had the effect of lifting lightly.

Before long, Li Shaoyou, the martial envoy and Shouyang Gong, entered the palace to meet him, and ushered in Liu Chengyou's head and face, and reprimanded. This is still the first time that Li Shaoyou has been treated like this by the Son of Heaven.

Although he was a little caught off guard, Li Shaoyou was still a little prepared, first pleaded guilty himself, and by the way, he also bit Wang Jingchong. After all, he also belongs to the Wude Division, and if something goes wrong, Wang Jingchong, the deputy envoy, has no responsibility at all, and it is impossible.

The two of them, in the Chongzheng Palace, had a fierce dispute, prevarication, and accusations, completely tearing their faces.

Liu Chengyou looked at the two of them, as if watching a play, until he couldn't bear it anymore. Similarly, after receiving the emperor's order to self-examine and rectify the Wude Division, the two of them walked out of the Chongzheng Hall completely.

"A good county magistrate, a good deputy envoy, and a good Wang Jingchong!" Walking out of the main hall, Li Shaoyou stopped and glared at Wang Jingchong, his handsome face was a little distorted at this time: "Good means, this time, I was negligent and caught you off guard!" ”

"Shouyang's words are heavy!" Facing Li Shaoyou's vicious gaze, Wang Jingchong didn't realize it, as if the dispute in front of Fang Cai Yu had not happened, and said with a smile: "It's all for Your Majesty, there is a disaster under the Duke of Shouyang, and the lower officials intend to be clear for you, and clean up the portal for Wu Desi, the public will not mind." After all, it's for the overall situation of the Takeshi Division, isn't it? ”

"Hehe......" Hearing his words, Li Shaoyou seemed to think of something, his emotions slowly calmed down, and he smiled coldly: "What I said is that I have written down this matter, let's see!" ”

After that, Li Shaoyou brushed his sleeves and left.

"Shouyang Gong go slowly!" Wang Jingchong was behind and bowed his hand. The corners of his mouth twitched into a smug smile.
